At the meeting in Kolašin from the coalition "For the Future of Montenegro" (ZBCG) they said that they would not allow "political blackmail by a foreign factor" and that Montenegro would be decided in Montenegro.

They supported, as announced, the entry of Montenegro into the European Union and assessed that the Open Balkans should be one of the key state projects. They claim that the international community is "actively working" to create a coalition between the Europe Now Movement and the Democratic Party of Socialists.

"We will not allow the conditioning of the international factor, as others went to the embassies and announced that they are against Kosovo and Metohija, that they do not speak the Serbian language, that they are not believers of the Serbian Orthodox Church, but that a universal Orthodox church should be created in the model of Ukraine, that sanctions should be imposed on Russia and thus open the way to the embassy," said the holder of the ZBCG list, the president of the Democratic People's Party, Milan Knežević.

He said that they are ready to guarantee that at the first session of the Assembly, "without impacting the Budget", they will propose amendments to the Labor Law, that the minimum wage of 450 euros be increased by 13 percent and that they will return winter leave, holiday pay and hot meals . "All citizens will have 225 euros of winter pay and 225 euros of holiday pay. Pensions will be aligned with salary growth, in agreement with Serbia they will open two factories in the north of Montenegro, where they will show their seriousness to the investments of Chinese companies," the statement added.

According to ZBCG, the Ministry for the fight against crime and corruption will also be formed, and all those who "became billionaires since 1990" will have to prove the origin of their assets.

Knežević invited everyone to come on Thursday, June 1, "to the procession from Šak Petrović Square in Nikšić, with the blessing of Bishop Metodij of Budamlje-Nikšić".

"Come to send a strong message to the suffering people of Kosovo, praying for peace in Kosovo and Metohija, in the Balkans and that our people are not alone," he said.

New Serbian Democracy MP Jovan Vučurović believes that after the elections on August 30, 2020, there was no, as he said, "dismantling of the criminal octopus of the DPS system".

According to him, this shows the state of the prosecution, the judiciary and the National Security Agency, which "do not allow this country to be free". All this, he claims, is supported by "western power centers" who are "trying to form a government from PES and DPS".

"Montenegro should be decided in Montenegro, not Picula, Lajčak and others," Vučurović said.

MP candidate Miloš Peković said that only by voting for the ZBCG coalition on June 11 is it possible to "correct the injustice" that was "committed to those who did not support the DPS during the 30 years of their rule".

Candidate for deputy Aleksandar Dožić assessed that the Democratic Front presented the fight against the former regime, and that the other political subjects "appropriated it to themselves".

The candidate for MP Anđela Vuković said that only the ZBCG coalition "knows how to say 'no' to foreign embassies", the announcement concludes.
